/*
Saved Variable handler - very basic atm - will tidy up given time.
Written by Sojan [sojan@ukcis.demon.co.uk] - 27/12/95
Instructions for Use ..
call set_variable_value with a string parameter identifying the variable and a
second mixed value which is the value you want to store
to query it simply call query_variable_status with a string parameter that
Identifies the variable
Things I know thats wrong with it atm ...
*NO checking for existing variables so you can overwrite other peoples - use your
name as part of the identifier or something atm ....
*It DOESN'T clear up variables that are no longer required - nor currently has code
to do so.
Both these things will be fixed in a few days - I wrote this off the cuff for a creator
With an unprounoucable name but I guess other people will find it useful.
Any comments/criticisms to me ....
